Rebirth of the 92 Business Tycoon - v6 Chapter 848
But Charlie Kidd quickly discovered that it was troublesome and uncomfortable, as if it had just begun.
Like the others in NEXTDOOR, when they went from the lakeside hotel to the landmark building in Toronto and the restaurant in the CN Tower, they also deliberately got off the car and walked along the lake.
Although it’s not the first time for them to visit Toronto, and even though they don’t like Hollywood, let alone the so-called “Northern Hollywood” in Toronto, it has to be said that walking along the lake like this in these days is indeed A thing that makes people physically and mentally happy.
Whether looking at the sparkling Lake Ontario, or looking at the benches under the big trees along the way, on the lawn, on the beach by the lake, those girls dressed in cool, or simply wearing bikinis play and play, it is very It is pleasing to the eye.
Along the way, there have been men and women in the team chatting with men and women they met, taking out their mobile phones to pay attention to each other… This is a natural thing that happens when traveling in a foreign country.
Charlie, who already has a family, is of course not the same as his men. His plan is to wait until the evening to find a bar to sit and sit…
It was the time when the sun was setting, and the sun was floating on the lake, dyeing the large area of lake water in the sky into a dim gold. After listening to the explanation by a girl from Canada, it was different in their mobile phones. The system is the Windows Phone system. As an executive of Microsoft and the person in charge of the Windows Phone system, Charlie Kidd felt inexplicably sad.
He shook his head, “Get in the car,”
Just as he got in the car first, while waiting for the guys who were still blending, the assistant held a tablet-of course a tablet equipped with their Microsoft system, and said to him, “Charlie, you have to look at this.”
Just looking at his expression, Charlie Kidd knew that this was probably not a good thing.
As soon as the title of the report came into view, he was sure that this was really not a good thing, “Apple opposes Android’s bid for Nortel’s patent”!
“On the first day when Nortel Networks patents began to be auctioned, Apple COO Cook said that Apple opposed Android’s bid for Nortel Networks patents.”
Kiddle wanted to ask Cook at this time, what did you do earlier? Why at this time, when Microsoft and Android are already closely linked, did they jump out to express their opposition?
“…He also said that they have communicated with the judge in charge of the Nortel Networks bankruptcy case on this, and Apple believes that Android’s participation in the bid for Nortel’s patents will bring Android an unfair competitive advantage…”
If you bid for Apple, will it not bring unfair competitive advantage?
“If the terms of the auction are not changed, the ongoing patent auction will cause huge damage to the development and enhancement of many existing technologies,”
Although Kidder is also quite unfamiliar with the development of Android, so in the previous period, they and Apple had a very good understanding of Android, but at this time, looking at what Cook said, he really wanted to ask Cook said, where’s the face, do you want it?
In any case, is Android free and open source?
You are telling me, how can such a free and open source product bring huge damage to the development and improvement of many existing technologies?
“Cook pointed out that we must see that when participating in the bid for Nortel’s patents, Android has also initiated an M&A proposal with Motorola, a well-known mobile communications company. Nortel’s 6,000 patents, plus Motorola’s 17,000 patents, This will become the largest patent pool in the communications field…”
“He said that this will most likely allow some companies to use patents as weapons,”
To be honest, we also regard patents as weapons first.
“…Cook finally stated that they would not rule out the lawsuit…”
Charlie Kidd was annoyed and immediately clicked the fork. Apple is really getting better and better when it comes to this set.
But what did you do so early?
Don’t say you don’t know, now that you are targeting Android in this way, you are actually targeting Microsoft. Of course, he is not surprised at this, but why don’t you take action before the auction starts, for example, it’s not better to fight for the two of us to join forces? ?
He believes that as long as Apple initiates such an initiative, Ballmer will definitely agree and find a way to end the cooperation with Android.
After all, no matter how bad the two companies have been, including the founders, for so many years, but for Android, we are natural allies… Oh, Apple is trying to swallow all Nortel’s patents alone. Anyone share.
Cook, you guy, it seems heavier than Jobs thought.
Also, since the ability is not as good as Jobs, of course, only work in other areas.
Charlie Kidd was wondering if he should contact Cummins now to discuss countermeasures. The other news on the page made his brows frowned. “BlackBerry opposes Android’s participation in Nortel’s patent auction.” Tell is opposed to Android’s participation in Nortel’s patent auctions “, “Ericsson is opposed to…”, “Sony is opposed to…”, “Ian Xin…”, “RPX is opposed to…”
RPX? You are because we rejected your offer of a ride, so let’s get involved too!
This is, the big series?
Will Apple be an advocate? Will it be?
This is really troublesome, especially against BlackBerry, which is now the most well-known high-tech company in Canada.
Are you so unconfident?
Thinking of this, Charlie Kidd suddenly became a little relaxed, which shows that the other bidders seem to be very jealous of Android.
The fear of opponents does not mean that they think Android has an advantage?
Kidder immediately thought of the reason. It must be known to all parties. Feng Yiping came to Toronto in person, but it seems that he really wouldn’t bother about this auction.
The brow he had just loosened, frowned again.
He believes that Ballmer must also know the news at this time, so he must also believe that the alliance between Microsoft and Android has an absolute advantage in this auction.
If the auction is unsuccessful, how should I explain?
This is not impossible. Who knows, this time Feng Yiping will not be the same as last time?
It seems that the other parties participating in the auction seem to have a tacit understanding and become an alliance.
In this way, their alliance with Android will never be easy.
This time, you shouldn’t join forces with Android, and Android is the best target.
Looking at Lake Ontario out of the car window, he suddenly didn’t even feel like going to dinner, he just wanted to go to the bar now.
But if he was just such a negative person and couldn’t sit in his seat today, he immediately called Cummins.
…………
Like Kidd’s choice, Cummins and the others were already in the CN Tower’s revolving restaurant at this time. They were also in the CN Tower’s revolving restaurant~www.mtlnovel.com~. He also saw the news, but he was the first time, I can see that companies headed by Apple, at such times, behind those remarks, are deeply afraid of themselves.
So at this time, he is happy.
Although Feng Yiping said that he would not ask about specific auctions, he felt very practical when he thought that he was in Toronto, Cummins and the people in the team.
The people on the M&A team know Feng Yiping very well, so they don’t think that Feng Yiping came to Toronto at such a time because he didn’t trust them or took the opportunity to perform. They all knew that the boss didn’t care about them. , And will not reduce the reward for everyone because some projects are personally led by him.
Feng Yiping’s presence will only make them feel better.
At this time, they were watching TV, and the Canadian TV station was also reporting on Nortel’s patent auction.
Different from the news that Kidder pays attention to, the auction on TV seems to be very excited. “From all parties involved in the auction, all major companies around the world are obviously interested in Nortel Networks’ patent portfolio. …”
“From the first round of the auction, the competition has been very fierce. Experts generally said that the results of this auction will be very successful.”
“This fully highlights the importance of patents and innovation. BlackBerry companies said that they should strengthen the construction of patent libraries…”
Someone smiled and said, “This is playing an emotional card.”
“We can’t underestimate BlackBerry,” Cummins said immediately. “They are the most advantageous object in this auction. After purchasing patents, they can still get tax exemptions and subsidies from their government. This will be huge. Reduce their costs…”
He checked his phone, “Hi, Charlie,”
